Band of Brothers Discussion: Bastogne (Episode 6)

Today we talk about the sixth episode of Band of Brothers (Bastogne). Talk about a slugfest in the cold, hard to imagine the misery these warriors went through. This episode is unique in that it focuses on a medic Eugene Roe, something that really brings to the front the suffering all around the small town.

- Dike: where's my foxhole?

- Doc yells at a guy for his arm wound, don't yell if it's not that bad

- "This is a combat patrol Doc, why don't you stay back"

- Seems like Roe never sleeps, always someone needing help in Bastogne

- Wounded seems positive (didn't die), but they'll live with that rest of their life
